Wow. What a great accomplishment. I've always wanted to see if someone would make a super round thing and compare it. The effect of the light on the sphere makes it look cool too. Nice job. 72.148.219.137 (talk) 04:14, 7 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

That comparison to the Earth makes no sense since the Earth is an ellipsoid. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 173.206.219.164 (talk) 05:59, 13 December 2010 (UTC) In that comparison to the Earth: "its ‘continents’ would gradually rise only 2.4 meters above sea level." They forgot to say how deep the sea would be. What if the deepest point of the "sea" reaches all the way to the core, or beyond? What if its full of such points? The "earth" below the "sea" could be like the grand canyon. It would be so round then, now would it? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 201.171.104.8 (talk) 23:04, 16 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]
